Oncogene activation mechanism determines the limits of targeted protein degradation.

This work developed orthogonal methods to increase production or enhance stability of β-catenin, an important oncoprotein and target for degrader therapeutics, and used the dTAG system to evaluate the consequences for PROTAC activity.

DNM2–Charcot–Marie–Tooth neuropathy stems from disrupted Schwann cell function and shows limited therapeutic reversibility

These findings establish the Dnm2K562E/SC− mouse as a robust preclinical model, recapitulating key features of DNM2–Charcot–Marie–Tooth, and provide crucial insight into the biological and temporal constraints that must guide future therapeutic strategies for DNM2–Charcot–Marie–Tooth.

Soy Protein Isolate-β-Cyclodextrin Microencapsulation Boosts Stability and Intestinal Delivery of α-Linolenic Acid-Rich Structured Lipids: Oxidation, Digestion, and Molecular Docking Evaluation.

In vitro simulated digestion demonstrated its characteristic intestinal sustained-release behavior, which provides preliminary in vitro evidence that may favor enhanced intestinal absorption of α-linolenic acid (ALA); however, further cellular or animal trials are required to quantitatively validate its actual in vivo...

β-strand addition within tip initiation complexes licenses assembly of diverse type IV filaments

How PilC/PilY1 can be retained on the fiber tip under enormous tensile loads generated during mechanical shear and T4P retraction is explained and how diverse T4P systems employ β-strand addition to license fiber assembly is demonstrated.

Leveraging Protein Dynamics for Selective Inhibition of Threonyl-tRNA Synthetase by Obafluorin Analogs.

A structure dynamics-based design strategy is reported that transforms OB into a selective antibacterial agent through rational modification of the nitrophenyl moiety, and establishes a 'kinetic sensor' strategy for achieving species selectivity.

Prevalence of Vitamin D Deficiency and Its Association with Disease Activity among Libyan Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Suboptimal vitamin D status is highly prevalent among IBD patients in Misurata, Libya, with disease activity acting as the primary driver of vitamin D depletion regardless of patient gender, underscoring the critical need for continuous assessment and the implementation of effective supplementation strategies to improv...

Local Frustration Modulates the Folding Dynamics of a Repeat Protein

Repeat proteins fold through pathways that are strongly shaped by local energetics, making them highly sensitive to mutations. The ankyrin repeat (AR) domain of IκBα is a cooperative folding unit in which the first four repeats (AR1–AR4) are stable, while the last two are destabilized. Despite this simple modular archi...

Title: Temporal Wave Function Collapse Dynamics

Temporal Wave Function Collapse Dynamics explores the theoretical underpinnings of the collapse of temporal wave functions – fundamental units of information within complex systems such as neural networks and protein folding – as a dynamic process. This paper posits that collapse isn't a discrete event but rather a con...

Aortic disease-linked mutations reveal unexpected convergent allosteric mechanisms of protein kinase G misregulation

Using NMR, molecular dynamics simulations, and complementary kinase and binding assays, it is shown that Val234 acts as a crucial allosteric hub of PKG autoinhibition, explaining how distal mutations can unpredictably rewire kinase allostery and drive pathogenic vascular signaling.

Title: Dynamical Symmetry Field Analysis

Dynamic Symmetry Field Analysis (DSFA) is a novel technique for unraveling the intricate patterns within complex systems, specifically focusing on identifying and quantifying 'dynamic symmetry fields.' This research explores the potential of employing a new mathematical operator to analyze the evolution of these fields...
